Seussical the Musical: Rousing SuCCeSS!

SEUSSICAL critically acclaimed by public!

More than 800 students, parents, teachers and guest including pk-1st graders from our neighboring school PS-36 and 4th and 5th graders from PS-125 experienced CSS's first theatrical performance!

"It was amazing!" said one student.  "CSS has shown that it has plenty of musical and dramatic talent!" commented a parent. "CSS showed the world its not just a great science and math school - it is also great in theatre!" commented another parent.

"Putting it all together was a complex and challenging task - four different courses were involved including theatre, cartooning, construction, and circus arts. 50 students and a dozen parents worked very hard for weeks to make this happen.  Prof. Hubbard and Prof. Hill - the director, as well as Ryan Driscoll, the musical director, worked their tails off to pull this together. The student actors, set construction, stage designers, and technical crew were simply amazing! Activities like this show our students just how much you can do with vision, hardwork and dedication. Prof. Hill pulled this off with great skill, organization and passion - she showed us again what great teaching is all about!. " commented the Principal, Dr. Maldonado.

CSS, in partnership with KIPP Star school, invested over $25,000 in this play's production and in upgrading the auditorium's lights and sound system. Our parent and Foundation for Educational Excellence supported these important investments. Kudos to Prof. Stillman, who led the way in this complex and important improvement to our physical plant.
